Type VIII RTKs: ROR family C

Formerly known as: ROR family and other RTKs

Unless otherwise stated all data on this page refer to the human proteins. Gene information is provided for human (Hs), mouse (Mm) and rat (Rn).

Overview

Show »« Hide

Members of the ROR family appear to be activated by ligands complexing with other cell-surface proteins. Thus, ROR1 and ROR2 appear to be activated by Wnt-5a (WNT5A, P41221) binding to a Frizzled receptor thereby forming a cell-surface multiprotein complex [1].
